According to the National Security and Defense Council's Center for Countering Disinformation, disinformation and manipulation appeared in the world on September 20.

Disinformation: Irish journalist Chay Bowes wrote on his page in X: “Five years after promising Ukrainians, he would "End the War" and "Put an End Corruption". The Clown Prince Dictator has brought Ukraine to the brink of annihilation.”

Rebuttal: Bowes promotes Russian propaganda narratives to shift responsibility for the destruction of Ukraine from the Kremlin to the Ukrainian government.

Manipulation: Swedish publicist Mats Nilsson wrote on his page in X: "Apparently the European Parliament called on the EU countries to lift restrictions on Kiev's long-range strikes on Russian territory. Bad idea. Russia will give a tough response using more powerful weapons.”

Rebuttal: Allowing Ukraine to strike military targets on Russian territory is a logical step towards strengthening its self-defense against Russian aggression. Furthermore, claims of a "tough response" from Russia are used to intimidate, and Russia's escalation continues regardless of Ukraine's actions.

  • On September 19, the West spread the narrative that a small nuclear weapon could have exploded in Toropets.
